The Thumb Octagon Barn is located in Tuscola County approximately 1 mile east of the Village of Gagetown along Bay City Forestville Road 1 mile north on Richie Road, just south of the Huron County border.
What exists on this site today is the result of a vision, a team effort, generous contributions and many hours of planning, organization, and plain hard work. The vision began in the minds of a few neighbors who did not want to see such an awesome structure and piece of agricultural history be destroyed in the name of ‘convenience’ or ‘progress’. And so began the Friends of the Thumb Octagon Barn organization – a rescue effort to save the barn from demolition, then restore the barn, then restore the house and surrounding grounds. Fund-raising efforts have grown into annual events known around the state. The vision to preserve has grown into a plan to own and operate an educational/historical/agricultural site for the education, recreation and entertainment of the community and visitors
